When Chicago Beyond is hiring, career opportunities will be included here.

As an Investments Manager focused on multiyear investments and responsive funding at Chicago Beyond, you will support the organization’s investment strategy by crafting compelling proposals and reports. Unlike traditional grants, Chicago Beyond prepares investment proposals on behalf of and in collaboration with potential investment partners, which enables Chicago Beyond to deploy funds to reach leaders and organizations that do not already have development staff. This role goes beyond investment proposal writing: you will analyze complex issue areas, identify levers for systems change in partnership with proximate leaders, and craft structured investment theses that inform Chicago Beyond’s investment strategy.
